With the actual version of M7 (squarish bottle Oud Absolu), you'll have to overspray if you are out and if you want to be noticed.
I use about 10 sprays to the office... And people tell me I smell nice, but that the scent is weak.

Body Kouros is good but doesn't perform well enough to compete in a crowd or really draw people in, so save that for another time. Opium and M7 are both very well-made and alluring scents I could smell all day (night).

Definitely la nuit! There is a reason it's so popular, it just smells DAMN good! Now there are better night out fragrances than YSL. If u want a YSL then go for it but look at other options u might like them more!

I agree. I can't even get why it's such a crowd pleaser actually. I tried it for the 3rd time in a perfumery today and each time I whiffed it I liked it a little less. It just smells like candies to me, and not in a good way. If you're going to wear something edible, make it a gourmand, not Wonka.

I have La Nuit Parfum and Opium EdP because I prefer them to their respective EdT counterparts. Overall they are less 'shouty' in the opening and tend to sit a little closer to the skin in dry down AND have a more masculine 'vibe' to them. In my view these are 'quietly confident mature masculine' traits which suit me 'cos I'm (just) over 50
